A win by nearly 80 points is pretty reassuring but what is perhaps more reassuring than that is that neither Jersey nor Pirates will be in the playoffs. Interesting that the four teams in the playoffs all play each other on the last day of the regular season.

This cruel country has driven me down, teased me and lied.I've only sad stories to tell to this townMy dreams have withered and died.

I agree the 80 points was nice. But against unenthusiastic opposition.

I'm looking forward to the excitement of the next few weeks, even though I suspect I'll have a few sleepless nights along the way.

When I went online to buy my tickets today I found my seats had already ben taken and it was difficult to get any seats anywhere near "Peters Patch". So for the first time ever I'm heading to upper West for the semi. I'm expecting a fantastic ride and overwhelming support. With a bit of luck the club will also make a decent amount of money from the semi- and, hopefully, the final.
